I went back to 74 and awakened the Godly Rich System

Chapter 395 394. Current Situation of Hong Kong Industry
Du Chuan's life seemed quite comfortable after that, as he didn't have to worry about anything.

His father-in-law and mother-in-law were accompanied by his parents, and the children were playing by themselves, so he didn't have to worry about them.

So now all he needs to do is go out and play with Ji Nianqing every day.

That day, Du Chuan was reading a book in the study. He was tired after playing for a few days and wanted to relax at home.

At this time Ji Xuetao knocked on the door and walked in.

"Dad." Du Chuan stood up and poured tea.

"Why did you come back so early today?"

Ji Xuetao has gotten used to living here these days, and he and He Xiaojun have a lot of common topics.

After all, Ji Xuetao is also running a company now. They have the same topics in business management, so they can talk more closely.

Ji Xuetao said: "I was a little tired today, so I came back early."

"I came here because I have something serious to ask you."

Du Chuan said: "You say."

Ji Xuetao said: "I remember that you planned to build factories on several plots of land in Pengcheng, right?"

Du Chuan nodded, "Indeed, there are almost four plots of land that are industrial plants."

"what happened?"

He acquired a lot of land in Pengcheng, most of which had complete plans, with strict regulations on what to build and what to do.

Of course, Du Chuan did have one or two pieces in his hands without any restrictions.

However, these are all scattered pieces of land, a very small piece, which was given to Du Chuan as a gift. He can do whatever he wants as long as it is not illegal.

If viewed from the perspective of future generations, this would be a huge benefit. However, it is different now. The land in Pengcheng is actually not valuable.

This is true regardless of the use of the land.

Du Chuan didn't know why Ji Xuetao asked these questions.

"I have taken a closer look at the situation in Hong Kong during this period, especially the various industries," said Ji Xuetao.

He wasn't really just having fun these days, except for the first few days, when he did have various interests in Hong Kong, but the novelty soon wore off.

Now is the peak period of his career and he has just achieved huge success, so his mind is full of business.

Now that they have come to Hong Kong, they will definitely learn about these things in detail. Not only him, but Zhu Hui is the same, but their directions are different.

"I found that many clothing and manufacturing industries in Hong Kong are somewhat sluggish. I heard that the market conditions are not very good." Ji Xuetao said, and even took out a report.

Obviously he really worked hard.

Du Chuan took it and read it carefully, then nodded and said, "You are right. Hong Kong's manufacturing industry is indeed sluggish now. This is Hong Kong's preparation for economic transformation."

"They will then shift their resources towards the service industry, finance, trade, shipping and so on."

This is a grand strategy that many people are very clear about, and it started in the past two years.

There are many reasons for this, the biggest of which is the limited land area and sparse population.

Manufacturing is a labor-intensive industry and requires a lot of industrial land.

They cannot meet these two requirements, so they need to transform. Finance is the best choice, as it requires high-end talents and plays a very important role in the development of Hong Kong.

In addition, industries such as trade and shipping have unique geographical environments, so their transformation is an inevitable result.

But things started to slow down this year. It’s not that they are going to change, but the China-UK negotiations are about to begin this year.

It will be carried out in more than a month.

The future of Hong Kong is unclear, so many things need to be put on hold, and I don’t have the energy to do them.

Of course, although it has slowed down, the overall strategy will not change and is still being implemented slowly.

For example, the previously prosperous clothing industry and manufacturing industry will gradually begin to decline.

However, according to the current time, it will still take several years. By the late 1980s, it will quickly weaken and shift.

This is also the reason why many Hong Kong businessmen return to invest in this era, as Hong Kong can no longer accommodate them to develop.

They needed to find a new place, and the mainland was just undergoing reform and opening up at that time, so they naturally set their sights on the mainland first.

The mainland is the place that best meets their needs, with plenty of land and people!
Ji Xuetao suddenly realized, "So there is this reason. I thought they were no longer capable."

Ji Xuetao had no channels to obtain this information, or his position was not high enough, so he naturally could not see so far.

Du Chuan smiled and said, "You are right. They are just not doing well. There are many reasons for their prosperity, but when we start to exert our strength, their confidence seems too weak."

Ji Xuetao nodded, and then talked about the purpose of his visit, "I actually want to build two factories in Pengcheng and move their industries there."

"There are many factories that want to sell now, and it won't cost much to buy them."

This is Ji Xuetao now. His horizons have been broadened and he sees things differently.

Even the cheapest factory would probably cost tens or even hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars, and that can only be considered a small workshop.

It is normal for larger amounts to be several million or even tens of millions.

In Ji Xuetao's words now, it is just small money.

Du Chuan quite agreed with this, it was just a small amount of money, and he also guessed what Ji Xuetao was going to say.

"If we want to move there, we definitely need a place. I was thinking, don’t you have several vacant lots over there? Since you are going to build a factory there anyway, why not build it now?" Ji Xuetao said excitedly.

Du Chuan did not answer directly, but asked: "If we build two more factories, can you manage them?"

It’s not that he looks down on Ji Xuetao, but Ji Xuetao is already busy enough now. If there are two more factories, Ji Xuetao will definitely not be able to manage them.

Ji Xuetao said, "Don't we still have your mother-in-law? Besides, the people you assigned to me before actually have two pretty good talents, so they can take over temporarily. If things don't work out, we can replace them later."

Du Chuan nodded, agreeing, although this seemed unreliable. After all, the talents he had found for Ji Xuetao before were all in engineering, which had nothing to do with factory management.

But the situation in the country now and will be like this for a long time to come, there is no need for any professional talents, as long as the ability is there, it does not matter whether the ability is professional or not.

"I'm afraid I can't give you those four plots of land of mine." But Du Chuan still shook his head and did not agree to Ji Xuetao's request.

Ji Xuetao was not angry, but asked curiously: "Do you have any plans?"

In his opinion, his son-in-law must have his own ideas, otherwise he would not disagree.
